[Cialug] P2v Vmware Server

I just shutdown the server and use DD to move the drive data to a VM.  It's not pretty, but it works well on OSs that aren't officially supported (like SCO OpenServer).

You might want to ask this question over on the VUG as well:  http://groups.google.com/group/thevug?lnk=srg&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8

Has anyone had any luck migrating a physical server to a Vmware virtual
server? If so what tools have you used? I am not running an ESX base ,
so I can not use the current migrate tool.

Thanks,

John
